Miracle by Evolution of the Groove: Review

Review of the track Miracle by Evolution of the Groove

The song Miracle shares its rocking sounds thanks to the dry and exquisite punch of electrical guitars, bold wind instruments and rhythmic drums. The arrangement is layered with the textured duet of strong Gospel-based female vocals paired with soulful R&B-courting male vocals. The track seems to leave aside any instrument or arrangement that might confuse the listener into thinking they are being serenaded. The musical accompaniment exudes power and defiance, refusing to be too melodic almost as if to prevent us from falling asleep on its metaphorical journey. It sounds like it was created to help the lyrics and the listener break through the metaphorically sonic obstacles into the very miracle that the title speaks of.

Judging by their name, it seems that this song embodies at least one of the band’s perspective of the sonic aspirations of the groove genre: a fusion of at least Rock, Funk, R&B and Gospel. But beyond putting together what sounds like a new wave (and age) for the groove, they bring in a new meaning to it, making it the vehicle for exorcising frustration to dig out and rekindle every flicker of hope.
